Flammability Testing

Effective safety assessment through applicable flammability data

Flammability testing is a vital element of any comprehensive safety assessment. Neglecting this critical aspect can expose your company to severe consequences, including devastating fires, explosions, and significant harm to people, assets, and the environment. DEKRA's Flammability Testing service offers you the assurance you need to manage fire risks effectively

Benefits of Flammability Tests

Expert guidance in evaluating fire test and fire and flammability testing risks
Risk assessment under diverse conditions
Precise simulation of flammability testing characteristics
Compliance assurance with industry best practices

Safeguarding Lives and Assets Through Fire and Explosion Hazard Assessment

Flammability testing data plays a pivotal role in safeguarding lives and property. DEKRA’s flammability testing labs give the knowledge to assess and mitigate fire test and fire and flammability testing hazards. By measuring upper and lower flammability limits (UFL and LFL), determining flashpoints, and predicting explosion severity, you have all the information needed to make informed decisions.

DEKRA's Approach to Providing Reliable Flammability Data

Comprehensive Flammability Testing

Whether you store, handle, or process flammable substances, comprehensive data is essential for assessing risk accurately. Our flammability testing considers factors like chemical properties, temperature, pressure, composition of fuel mixtures, and material construction. This holistic approach ensures that you have a complete understanding of your materials' flammability properties.

Reliable Laboratory Flammability Testing

Process safety leaders rely on a range of flammability tests to evaluate risks and safeguard both personnel and operations when handling flammable gases, liquids, dusts, and powders.

Here’s how our specialised tests can help you manage these risks effectively:

Vapour Pressure

Evaporation Rate Insight: Vapour pressure, a key metric, signifies a liquid's evaporation rate. Discover if your substances are deemed volatile by assessing their vapour pressure.

Limiting Oxygen Concentration (LOC)

Flash Point

Auto-ignition Temperature

Explosion Severity (Pmax and Kg)

Flammability Diagram

Minimum Ignition Energy (MIE) Test

Limits of Flammability

Open Burning Test (Liquids)

Sustained Combustibility Test

Certified testing for safety compliance

Our flammability testing services adhere to the leading industry standards, ensuring your operations meet all the necessary safety certifications.

Flammability Testing designed for any industry

Our flammability testing services are trusted across numerous industries, providing the critical data needed to effectively manage fire and explosion risks.
